"You've chosen me as your inheritor?!"
Ye Han was stunned by the Dragon God's words.
The Dragon God nodded slightly and spoke in a solemn tone.
"Indeed, I will set nine trials for you!"
"Each time you complete a trial, you will receive a divine reward from me!"
"As long as you complete all of them and avenge me against the gods of the God Realm..."
"Not only will I pass on my divine position to you, but I will also give you my other half, the Silver Dragon King, as your concubine!"
Ye Han was genuinely tempted by the first part of the offer.
But when he heard the last part, alarm bells rang in his head.
"The Silver Dragon King is your other half. You'd really give her to me as a concubine? Why should I believe you?!"
"If she really becomes my concubine, what about you? Don't you want to merge with your other half and revive?!"
The Dragon God, who had been calm until now, suddenly let out a low, resentful growl.
"When I entered your spiritual sea, I somehow saw the future of the Douluo World!"
"When I saw what my other half, the Silver Dragon King, did in the future, I felt immense shame and anger. She has disgraced me!"
"Not only would I let her become your concubine, but even if she became your slave, I would have no complaints!"
"As for revival, my wife and children are all dead. I have no attachment to this world anymore!"
"The only thing left for me is to take revenge on those damned gods of the God Realm. Will you agree to this?!"
After hearing this, Ye Han felt that the Dragon God's words made sense.
The Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, was indeed a controversial figure in the original story!
She talked about reviving the spirit beasts and taking revenge on the gods of the God Realm.
But what did she do? She ended up falling in love with Tang Wulin and became the daughter-in-law of her enemy.
She was nothing but a foolish, love-struck idiot. The only thing worth mentioning about her was her looks and figure.
The Dragon God's wife and children were indeed dead, and with his personality, it was unlikely he would want to live on.
Wait!
The Dragon God saw the future of the Douluo World?!
Ye Han recalled the Dragon God's first statement and was instantly shocked.
What future of the Douluo World? He probably saw my memories!
But it seemed he only saw the parts related to the Douluo World. He shouldn't know about the rest.
After thinking it over, Ye Han decided to take a gamble. With the Dragon God's inheritance, he could better avenge Tang Hao. He nodded and said:
"Alright, I agree! But I have three conditions!"
"First, you cannot spy on any of my private matters in the outside world!"
"Second, you must protect me when necessary!"
"Third, the matter of the Silver Dragon King becoming my concubine... needs to happen sooner!"
Although Gu Yuena was a love-struck idiot, it depended on who she fell for.
If she fell for him, Ye Han, he wouldn't mind at all.
She fell for Tang Wulin because of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, right?
With the Dragon God's help, he should be able to easily attract her, shouldn't he?!
The Dragon God didn't refuse and replied straightforwardly.
"For the first point, rest assured. I cannot see or hear anything about your outside world. I can only sense if you're in danger."
"For the second point, my divine power is almost depleted. I can protect you at most three times. I won't intervene unless absolutely necessary."
"For the third point, I can agree to that. I'll include it as a reward in future trials, depending on whether you can pass them."
Ye Han nodded in satisfaction, then curiously asked.
"Then what's my first trial?!"
The Dragon God fell silent for a moment, as if weighing his words, before saying.
"Join a faction and become the disciple of a Titled Douluo to ensure your safety. The time limit is two and a half days!"
Ye Han was overjoyed and eagerly said.
"Alright, send me out. I'll go complete the trial."
This was practically a freebie. As soon as he went out and agreed to Ling Yuan's offer, he could complete it immediately!
The Dragon God nodded slightly and gave a final serious warning.
"Remember, boy, do not reveal my inheritance to anyone!"
"If the gods of the God Realm find out, both you and I will face certain doom!"
With that, his massive golden eyes shone brightly, illuminating everything.
Ye Han's surroundings blurred once more, and he returned to the outside world.
"Little Han, why aren't you answering me? Don't you want to?!"
As soon as he returned, he saw Ling Yuan's face filled with disappointment and worry as she asked.
"Ah... no, no!"
Ye Han realized she might have misunderstood and quickly prepared to agree.
But before he could speak, a stern and urgent voice suddenly rang out:
"Ling Yuan, what happened here?!"
Both Ye Han and Ling Yuan were startled by the voice and turned to look at the door.
A tall man in golden armor with long golden hair strode in.
Behind him were ten men, each exuding an imposing aura!
This was probably Qian Daoliu, along with the other elders and high-ranking officials of the Spirit Hall, right?
But among these people, it seemed the Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were missing?
Ye Han looked at these intruders and pondered silently.
Sure enough, when Ling Yuan saw them, she quickly stood up and bowed:
"Greetings, Grand Elder! Greetings to all the elders and seniors!"
Qian Daoliu nodded, then quickly scanned the room.
His gaze fell on Ye Han, then back to Ling Yuan, and he urgently asked:
"Ling Yuan, was the commotion just now caused by him? I need to know everything that happened!"
The other seven elders also looked anxious, as did the three elders who had followed.
Ling Yuan glanced at Ye Han, then recounted everything that had just happened.
"What?!"
"Dual semi-divine martial souls!"
"The Light Holy Dragon and the Dark Holy Dragon!"
"Innate level 20 soul power without a divine martial soul!"
Upon hearing the details, Qian Daoliu and the others were all shocked and dumbfounded.
Even if they didn't want to believe it, recalling the massive commotion in the city earlier...
And the shattered soul power detection ball on the ground, they had no choice but to believe.
When they heard that Ling Yuan had invited Ye Han to join the Spirit Hall, but Ye Han had yet to agree...
Even the usually calm Qian Daoliu couldn't hold back. He immediately stepped forward to persuade Ye Han.
But to be safe, he first confirmed.
"Little one, I am Qian Daoliu, the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall."
"Can you release your two martial souls for me to see?!"
Ye Han nodded and raised his hands, releasing the Light and Dark Holy Dragons.
In an instant, light and darkness intertwined, and a terrifying aura filled the Awakening Hall.
"Hiss—!"
Everyone in the room gasped.
Their eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
It was exactly as Ling Yuan had said. This child had the potential of an emperor, truly terrifying!
After confirming it was true, Qian Daoliu naturally couldn't let such a monstrous talent slip away. He urgently said:
"Your name is Ye Han, right? I'll call you Little Han from now on."
"Little Han, you must understand what the Spirit Hall represents, right?!"
"As long as you're willing to join the Spirit Hall, I will immediately appoint you as our Holy Son!"
"The Spirit Hall will spare no effort in nurturing you, giving you the potential to become a god in the future!"
As soon as these words were spoken, none of the elders or high-ranking officials objected. They couldn't let this child slip away!
Ye Han had no intention of refusing in the first place. Now that he heard he could directly become the Holy Son, he retracted his martial souls and nodded:
"I am willing to join the Spirit Hall and become the Holy Son!"
As soon as these words left his mouth, before Qian Daoliu and the others could rejoice...
An untimely, authoritative female voice suddenly came from outside.
"Grand Elder, although you are the head of the elders, appointing a Holy Son is a major matter..."
"According to the rules, shouldn't you seek the approval of the current Pope—me?!!"
